Spate of Break-ins around Geelong

Posted: Sunday, August 30, 2015

Police are investigating 31 break-ins around the Geelong and Grovedale areas with offenders targeting local Businesses. It seems that they have been after money or valuables that can be grabbed and taken quickly like cash and electronics, but causing considerable damage to the business at the same time.

Shops and businesses with alarms and security systems are less likely to be broken into as offenders will target the least secure premises's first. Then once an alarm is triggered criminals are likely scared off for a while. The problem here is that these types of crimes do tend to reoccur in the area until the culprits are caught and dealt with so having both a security alarm and CCTV surveillance is your best chance of deterring and catching thieves in their tracks.

Our Business and Retail security systems can be self monitored or can call "back to base" via our Victorian Police approved 24hr monitoring station. We also provide indoor and outdoor CCTV Cameras with high definition digital video surveillance that records offenders so they can be recognised or at least profiled and are caught before they can do more damage. These cameras also provide advanced video analytics features such as motion detection, audio detection and tampering alarms.
